Camera Cruise

October 03, 2000

It's a real rush to announce the winners of this year's vacation-snapshot contest. (Honestly - our heads are still spinning after sorting through all the awesome entries.) Readers took an issue of KidNews on their summer vacations, then held it up for a snapshot in some hot location. We printed some sweet snapshots during the summer. Today we'll show off more - and announce our three favorites. The kids in those three pics win cameras!

- A thin layer of scaffolding stands between Christian R., 11, of Chicago and a gargoyle at Notre Dame in Paris.

- Thomas M., 12, and brother Christopher, 9, stand bravely in front of the Hodag monster in Rhinelander, Wis. Legend has it that a Hodag was spotted in 1896 - and it sprang at the photographer just after its picture was snapped. Watch your backs, guys!

- We were charmed by this cute snapshot of Andrea L., 8, of Wheeling. She's taking it easy at Camp Dainava in Manchester, Mich.
